AboutThe Tour

Chelsea

All though the New York art scene relocated to the Chelsea neighborhood all the wayback in the mid 90’s, it is in this particular moment in time that it has become the main city center for contemporary art. Chelsea is the home for over 350 galleries and institutions, featuring exhibitions by both emerging and established artists. Chelsea is THE place for art.

Not like the famous New York city Museums Chelsea has remained the designated area for the true art lovers often unnoticed by the cities many tourists. It might be due to the complicated navigation skills one has to master, or the confusing labyrinth of galleries that are both good and bad, maybe it’s the rapid changing paceof the weekly and monthly shows.
